Solar, end to end
Site to substation to twenty five years of operation. Delivered as one scope or as any individual piece, with the measurement layer included rather than sold separately.
Ten services
Each has a defined output and can be contracted on its own. Most clients start with one and add the rest once they have seen the work.
Resource assessment and feasibility
Measured irradiance and soiling data for the actual site rather than a regional average, shading analysis, terrain and flood assessment, and a generation estimate with its uncertainty stated.
Output: feasibility report with yield estimate and rangeLand acquisition and permits
The full land scope, from site screening through registered deeds and right of way. Detailed on the land pooling page.
Output: clean possession and permissions on recordDesign and engineering
Plant layout that does not shade itself in December, module and inverter selection matched to local temperature and dust, structure design for the site wind loading, cable sizing and single line diagrams.
Output: detailed project report and construction drawingsEquipment supply
Modules, inverters, mounting structures, trackers, transformers, cables and balance of system, procured against a written technical specification rather than a supplier brochure, with factory inspection where it matters.
Output: equipment delivered to site with test certificatesCivil and mechanical works
Site grading, foundations sized to the actual soil rather than a standard assumption, structure erection, module mounting, internal roads, drainage, fencing and site security.
Output: mechanically complete plantElectrical works
DC and AC cabling, combiner boxes, inverter and transformer installation, earthing and lightning protection, plant control and monitoring systems.
Output: electrically complete plant, testedSubstation and evacuation
Switchyard and substation works, transmission line to the connection point, metering and protection to utility specification, and the right of way for the corridor.
Output: substation built and line ready for chargingGrid connection and approvals
Connectivity and evacuation approval, electrical inspectorate clearance, coordination with the transmission utility through testing, charging and commercial operation.
Output: plant charged and exportingOperations and maintenance
Cleaning cycles matched to local soiling, preventive maintenance, thermal imaging for hot spots and failing strings, vegetation management, spares holding, and fault response against defined response times.
Output: contracted availability with monthly reportingPerformance measurement, included
Actual output read against what the conditions should have produced, so a genuine fault is separated from a cloudy week, and gradual losses are found before they become a year of lost generation.
Output: performance ratio reporting and loss attributionWhat others leave out
Almost every solar plant underperforms its design estimate, and almost none of the owners can say by how much or why. The data exists in the inverters. What is missing is anyone comparing it to what should have happened.
Soiling builds up gradually. A string fails and the plant keeps exporting, so nothing alarms. A tracker drifts a few degrees. Individually invisible, together a meaningful share of annual generation, and all of it findable if somebody is measuring.
A plant whose performance cannot be verified is worth less to its owner, to its lender and to anyone buying its output. We treat measurement as part of building it properly, which is also why we are willing to contract on availability rather than on effort.
